Eating Kansai's HIGHEST Ranked Ramen

The Kansai (Kyoto, Osaka, Nara) region's HIGHEST Ranked Ramen Shop! Is it worth it? We'll find out...
Alongside that ramen shop, I visit three others for some of the heaviest ramen I've ever had.
This is the eleventh and FINAL episode in a BIG KYOTO RAMEN SERIES. It's bittersweet bringing this heavy-hitting ramen series to a close.

1:40 that smirk after a sip of the soup :)

Fine! A bowl of ramen before sleep will do...

Great series, Frank! These last 4 shops are so remote.

[@lordiari7110]

A very interesting episode. Loved the side stories, also, with clips of the surroundings (both night and day). Love that you push for not-easy-to-reach restaurants also!

“I’m living in Nara. 🦌 Thank you for recommending some super delicious ramen. Nara also has other amazing ramen spots. 🍜 I hope you can visit my lovely hometown! ❤

[@helvetiqa]

Yes! Kintetsu is SO much better in Kansai than JR for some reason!

3:50 oh man, i am also a shio guy, and that looks super clean and comforting

I visited Muteppou in Tokyo just after the pandemic and was disappointed to learn that they switched to a Tsukemen style. I definitely prefer their ramen. Nice to know that other parts of Japan have Muteppou as well (and Gumshara in Australia, of course).

Ramen media question, if I wanted to pick up a copy of TRY on my next visit in a couple weeks is that still available to pick up and where could I pick it up? Is there any other ramen media (image heavy, ideally) that you may recommend?

[@arnelpijuan7618]

Why do you pronounce Tsukemen not the Japanese way?

[@CNote415]

I wonder that too lol, I thought I was the only one that noticed the odd pronunciation.

[@Sfedai0]

What do you mean? Hes saying it exactly right. Maybe youre confused because he says it faster so the TSU part isnt as drawn out.

[@ariariari.c]

It is the correct way though.

[@arnelpijuan7618]

​@@Sfedai0 Watch how Japanese say Tsukemen.
